This morning, I did feel a little nervous. How would my knee cope? (I really hurt it on a similar experience back in 2008). Would the car let me down? Accommodation in the Shetland Islands?... and so many more questions. I recognised this all too well. It was my friend fear paying me a visit.
It is amazing that despite having had far more ...
Rattray head
... The result of a lot of money and 12 months of planning: finally reality connecting with planning via computer in a dark room. I woke up early (sunrise is 4.30 or so) and set out to take a photo. It was almost perfectly still, reflecting this oddly symmetrical and isolated lighthouse with an ok sunrise. We felt gross later that day... It was disgusting and we were exhausted. Welcome to camper van ...
The Sparkling City
... the nearby whisky region of Speyside is home to a hotel bar stocked with over 1,000 whiskies (overnight stay recommended!).
Also in the town of Oldmeldrum is the stunning Meldrum House, where we stopped for lunch. The friendly team were clearly elated after just winning AA Hotel of the Year in Scotland and it's very well deserved. The manor was built in 1236 and is furnished in a warm country house style – complete with a Whisky Cave. ...

... is going to be an awesome summer filled with loads of travelling so if you fancy keeping up to date with pictures, stories and videos of Greece, Asia, The Alps, Bruge, Kent and The West Coast of Scotland please follow me on here.
My Summer will be a large mixture of holidays from partying it down on the Greek Island of Zakynthos with friends to backpacking round 6 different countries in Asia to having an adventure ...
Moments of Magic&Sparkle
... the best one...
- As I used to at KFC, I talk to my till when it is not working as I want it to. I don't think this is normal, but it is something that I do. Usually, I just tell it to hurry up or wake up or something, or I ask it where the Cinnamon Scroll is or something. But this particular time, I had two lovely chatty women come through, and they were talking to each other so I decided not to make small talk with them to save interrupting ...

It appears Pete Wentz is at odds with his soon-to-be ex-wife Ashlee Simpson over custody of their 2-year-old son, Bronx.
The musician, 31, filed a divorce response Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court seeking joint custody of their child.
Simpson, 26, who filed for divorce last month, indicated in her filing that she's seeking sole custody of Bronx with visitation for Wentz.
However, legal experts say that because of the limited detail in divorce filings, it's too early to say if the couple are truly headed for a custody battle.

Ordering a script for the sequel to a film that hasn't come out yet seems to be a quickly growing trend in Hollywood. On Wednesday, we heard rumors that Warner Bros. already has a shortlist of potential writers for the "Man of Steel" sequel, and Thursday (November 17), Deadline reported that Lionsgate has already begun courting a writer for the next "Hunger Games" film, "Catching Fire."
According to the report, Lionsgate wants Simon Beaufoy, the Academy Award-winning writer behind the "Slumdog Millionaire" screenplay, to pen the next adaptation of the Suzanne Collins series. Collins and "Hunger Games" director Gary Ross contributed a lot of the writing for the first film's script, and the pair had planned to collaborate again on "Catching Fire."
But post-production on "Hunger Games," which opens in theaters on March 23, has kept Ross too busy to begin work on the next script, necessitating the hiring of a new writer. Ross is, however, expected to return as director.
Negotiations between Beaufoy and Lionsgate have not officially begun, but the studio has apparently made its intentions clear.
Lionsgate had previously announced that the three "Hunger Games" books would eventually become four separate movies. How those movies will be broken up remains to be seen. Recent film series to have done that, "Harry Potter" and "Twilight," split the final book entry into two films, but there have been no specific plans announced for "Mockingjay," the third book in this series.
In addition to "Slumdog," Beaufoy's other writing credits include another Danny Boyle-directed film, "127 Hours," and "The Full Monty."
Check out everything we've got on "The Hunger Games."

Extracts From L'Enigme du Desir: Ma Mere, Ma Mere, Ma Mere Screened at the Free International Forum in Italy
Five extracts from my feature film L'Enigme du Desir: Ma Mere, Ma Mere, Ma Mere, will be screened at the Fifth Free International Forum, in Bolognano, Italy. The Forum was founded and is curated by the Baroness Lucrezia De Domizio Durini, who worked with Lucio Fontana and also collaborated with Joseph Beuys. The Director of the Forum is Emanuel Dimas de Melo Pimenta, a musician, architect, and intermedia artist, curator of the Sao Paolo Biennial and long time collaborator of John Cage. The Forum manifesto states: "Despite the cultural, intellectual and moral crisis that holds the entire planet in its grasp, there are still men who see free creativity as the only way to live in peace with themselves and to act in accordance with the fundamental principles of Humankind and Mother Nature. Thanks to this very outlook, a "network of steel" has developed over the years, constantly welcoming new disciplines and explorations, figures of different nationalities and generations, all united by a free, undiminished creativity that translates into deep, unfettered knowledge, giving rise to transactions governed by a supportive, unconstrained collaboration. Such men, with their unstinting, unceasing work, their wise and independent efforts, move beyond the standard systems of consumer society, striving through their conduct - the one effective means of Communicating the Truth - to improve society." My film will be screened along with films on John Cage, Marcel Duchamp, and Merce Cunningham, in the Durini Chapel, near the Paradise Plantation of Joseph Beuys.

Withdrawal of Art From the 56th Venice Biennale
I have decided to withdraw my work and not exhibit at the Venice Biennale this year. In 2005 and 2013, I exhibited work at the 51st and 55th Venice Biennales. Since then, the situation in the art world has continued to worsen, to the point I feel I can no longer take part in any exhibitions run by the establishment. The work that is promoted by dealers and museums and festivals at this point in history is characterized by banality and surface. It is work that limits and closes down consciousness in the individual, rather than opening up and amplifying it. There is another kind of art, however, that is capable of acting as a catalyst for transformation. This is an art that can aid us in the realization and actualization of our potential both as individuals and as a species. This is the art I have dedicated my life to making. Instead of exhibiting at the Biennale, I will be putting a selection of my work in literature, music, photography, installation, and film, onto two hard drives. I will then choose two people, a man and a woman, using the international phone directory and a random number generator. The hard drives will be sent to these two people and will constitute a private exhibition for them. This returns the art-making and exhibiting process to its vocational origins, where I serve the source of inspiration and impart the work to an audience as a gift, rather than a commodity exchanged for money or fame. The structural dynamic of the art world these days is that of an inverted pyramid, with curators, dealers, and funding bodies at the top, and the artist at the bottom. This balance needs to be redressed to a more equitable and egalitarian relationship. There are many problems that need to be resolved in the contemporary art infrastructure, which are also mirrored in society as a whole, where the few manipulate, dominate, and subjugate, the many. This needs to change, and I believe it will. In the meantime, I will continue to strive to create work that is as great as I can possibly make it. And do my part in working towards a new society, a new world, where the spirit of creativity, justice, and humanity reign.

Amlehn Fripp Jeanrenaud - Saudade
From 2008-2012, I worked on a project with guitarist Robert Fripp (King Crimson), and cellist Joan Jeanrenaud (Kronos Quartet). The project was to consist of a number of soundscapes with spoken word by myself. I wrote several texts which Joan responded to musically along with Robert's soundscapes. In the end, I decided the works functioned better as instrumentals without my voice. You can hear the results here: https://soundcloud.com/amlehn-fripp-jeanrenaud

Sound Art Works at the 55th Venice Biennale
Earlier this year, two of my sound art works were exhibited on a lathe cut polycarbonate record at the 55th Venice Biennale. The work was presented as part of the Road to Nowhere panel discussion at the University of Venice. The sound art works on the disc where: The Snow of Your Name, with music by myself, Ariel Lorca, Eleonor Sandresky (Philip Glass Ensemble), Mick Rossi (Philip Glass Ensemble), and David Crowell (Philip Glass Ensemble); and: Oannes (Reprise), with music by myself, Ariel Lorca, Julia Kent (Antony and the Johnsons), Jem Finer (The Pogues), and Andrew Sterman (Philip Glass Ensemble). You can hear one of the compositions here: https://soundcloud.com/paulamlehn/oannes-reprise This is the second time my work has been presented at Venice. In 2005, one of my text works, Untitled, was exhibited at the Isola della Poesia, at the 51st Venice Biennale.

Paul Amlehn and John Cage Project
I am currently working on a project, which will re-visit and re-imagine the work of John Cage. I will be utilizing a number of John's existing recordings, de-constructing and re-constructing them into new forms. It is important to ensure that these works are not merely a pastiche or homage, but, are in their own right, functioning musical organisms. To this end, I will employ chance procedures and other processes that incorporate hazard and indeterminacy, as well as considered conceptual, thematic, and narrative approaches. Cage is widely considered to be one of the most influential American composers of the 20th century. I am looking forward to engaging with his oeuvre and seeing what arises from that interaction. My thanks to the John Cage Trust and Edition Peters.

Paul Amlehn and William S. Burroughs Project: A Walk to the End of the World
In late 2012 and early 2013, I worked on a number of compositions of music which utilized the texts and vocals of William S. Burroughs. After a brief hiatus, I am back working on the project, which will be released as an album, titled: A Walk to the End of the World. The most recent compositions that have been completed on the project are: The Piper Pulled Down the Sky, with music by Mick Rossi of the Philip Glass Ensemble, and Jeffrey Zeigler of the Kronos Quartet, arranged and produced by myself and Ariel Lorca; and Interzone, with music by Ulrich Krieger of the Metal Machine Trio and Stephen Vitiello, graphic score by John Cage, produced and arranged by myself and Ariel Lorca. You can listen to two of the compositions here: http://soundcloud.com/amlehn-burroughs/the-piper-pulled-down-the-sky http://soundcloud.com/amlehn-burroughs/interzone Cover art for the project has been provided by Gerhard Richter. Pictured above is the cover image, from Gerhard's November series: 3 Nov 2008.

The Meta-Novel: The Reinvention of the Novel for the 21st Century
I am about to embark on a new project, one which gives rise to a completely new art form: The Meta-Novel. Since the 18th century, the novel has held an important place in culture, as one of the most preeminent artistic forms, gifting us with works such as: Ulysses, The Grapes of Wrath, Tropic of Cancer, and A Clockwork Orange, works which both distilled the quintessence of our times and brought about a seismic paradigm shift in our cultural landscape. More recently, John Barth, in his influential and controversial essay: The Literature of Exhaustion, announced the death of the novel. My project, challenges the concept of writing as exclusively being a representation of language through graphic means. It instead posits a form of "writing" which is inclusive of the systems of proto-writing, ideographic, and mnemonic symbols, as well as conventionally encoded linguistic utterance, while also adopting new means, modalities and registers outside of what is traditionally thought of as written expression. The Meta-Novel is a form of "writing" that moves in a protean way through various artistic mediums and disciplines, adopting these forms as a virus adopts a host vessel, before moving onto the next one in a new shape or structure. It is a work that is constantly evolving and metamorphosing, expressing, divining, and interrogating itself. The Meta-Novel will utilize mail art, poster art, land art, robotics, telematic art, bio art, live performance, thought experiments, virtual reality, theater, film, music, painting, and interactive media, traversing and inhabiting a myriad of forms and conceptual territories in order to achieve it aims. My work will explode the idea of the novel, fracturing it into a web of shards or fragments, while at the same time, allowing the novel as a form to sustain its structural integrity and durability, as a unifying ideological construct and vehicle for storytelling. In this way, The Meta-Novel is simultaneously blown apart and whole, alive and dead, existing in a quantum state of superposition, before collapsing into the singular reality of each of its chosen forms. Both traditional and experimental media will function as a vehicle for the storytelling, propelling the characters, concepts, and themes, through a metabolic chain of narrative, where the energy generated by the death of the previous chapter will fuel the birth of the next. This Meta-narrative, this Ur-text, will, in a variety of structural configurations, elemental forms, and artistic media, revisit, reorchestrate, and reprise the central concerns of the work itself. The Meta-Novel will be comprised of 360 "chapters," each chapter explored in a new medium or form, the 360th final chapter, bringing the narrative cycle to a close, as the Ouroboros, the cosmic serpent devouring its tail, simultaneously destroying and giving birth to itself. Possible configurations for several of the chapters are: actors improvising in real time, their dialogue being captured by voice to text software which writes it into the novel; the study of the effect of chemical reactions on biological systems on both the micro and macro level (for example: petri dish and marsh ecosystem) the shifts in biological architecture influencing the structure of the textual material; a performance work near Te Reinga and Te Po - The Leaping Place of the soul and the Underworld, in the Maori system of belief; a chapter that is an olfactory museum composed entirely of scents; a sculpture of salt likeness of the author dissolving in the sea; moving images by myself, New Zealand artist Paul Amlehn, projected onto sculptures by Swiss artist Paul Amlehn (1867-1931) on the facade of the Musee d'Art et d'Histoire in Geneva; a chapter sent via telepathy to receivers in multiple countries each of whom transcribes the text allowing it to morph into various permutations; and the final chapter of the work placed on a microchip and implanted in the author's body (mine), where it will remain, until my death. At the demise of the author the bio-chip will be removed from the vessel of the body in a ritual ceremony, the final chapter of the work revealed, and the art cycle of The Meta-Novel complete itself. The Meta-Novel is a new form for the new century. It is a work that has a correlative in the Greek deity Proteus, who, according to Jung, is both a symbol of the unconscious and the perfection of the art. The Meta-Novel is the fulfillment of the notion Wagner proposed in his The Artwork of the Future, of a Gesamtkunstwerk, or total work of art. It is at once an open laboratory; a functioning organism; a ritual space; an alchemical vessel; and a prosthesis of the unconscious. Ultimately, The Meta-Novel is a work which addresses and seeks to answer the fundamental questions of our existence: Where did we come from? Why are we here? Where are we going?

Untitled Text Work Exhibited at the 51st Venice Biennale
My text work: Untitled, was exhibited in the Isola Virtuale, which was part of the Isola della Poesia exhibit, at the 51st Venice Biennale. UNTITLED When the world has been reduced to a dark wood I will find you a taste of ashes floats on the air. The musk is in the deer, the fire in the wood. What new constellations of torment rise for me now? Like weak prey torn open I have bared my innermost hidden pulse to my killer. And if I become the ancient traveler I shall go down the path the air milky and spiced with trade winds with rose leaves in closed jars. Here it has the sublime confusion of a dream we cannot remember. The great fire which illuminates us and sings in our flesh leaves us a husk of helpless shadows. Again these same thoughts that fall and fly. Whistlings of death and unheard music. I have been humiliated by the destructive powers of my own love. I have confessed an appetite that is unspeakable. At the time of telling blood flows from each eyelash pieces of the heart that come through the eyes.

Paul Amlehn and William S. Burroughs
In 2012 and 2013, I worked on several compositions of music with texts and vocals by William S. Burroughs, courtesy of his Estate. It was an exciting and challenging experience to engage with Bill's work and ideas, and with the man himself, albeit posthumously. A number of compositions grew of out this series of experiments. Two of the works, which, in their final form, did not have texts and vocals by Burroughs, were nonetheless organic outgrowths of working with Bill's words and voice, his concepts, thoughts and emotions. The music was composed to my vocals, by musicians in various countries. Later, Bill's voice was introduced, which helped to bring about the final arrangement of each piece. The last stage of the process was to remove Bill's voice. A foray into the worlds that Bill created in his writings, evolved into musical compositions that were independent artistic statements and entities in their own right. Through the process of their making, the works mutated, becoming something different from what was originally intended, while still retaining some of the artistic DNA and spirit of both myself and Burroughs. You can hear the two compositions here: http://soundcloud.com/paulamlehn/cross-the-wounded-galaxies http://soundcloud.com/paulamlehn/the-sky-is-thin-as-paper-here In addition to these works, I have several other compositions in various phases of development which do utilize Bill's texts and vocals. If, once the work is completed, it meets a level that is commensurate with my standards and the standards Bill has set in his own work, then I will release it. My thanks to James Grauerholz, the Wylie Agency, and the musicians involved in the creation of these works.

Blood of Union
I have recently completed the album work: Blood of Union. Blood of Union features contributions from musicians from the bands of Lou Reed, Tom Waits, Laurie Anderson, and Leonard Cohen, as well from members of the Philip Glass Ensemble. Recorded over a three year period, the project utilized an aleatory process, whereby my texts and vocals were sent to musicians in various countries to use as a catalyst and point of departure for their own imaginings. The vocal material was used as a carrier for the intellectual, emotional, psychological, and psychic matter of the work. It was also a way of teleporting my nervous system across cyberspace, so that the nervous systems of the musicians could meet and fuse with my own. Each musician heard the same point of reference, the vocals, but, none of the musicians heard what any of the other musicians were composing. In this way, the portal of chance was open to allow the magic to manifest in the work. Another methodology I employed on the album was the use of V-A Synthesis (Visual-Aural Synthesis). I used a specially written computer program to interpret the information in an image as a form of visual score. The program read the visual data and translated it into a series of values, which were then applied to the sonic material, color to stereo position, height to frequency, brightness to amplitude, etc. This radically altered the structure and nature of the sounds themselves and gave rise to startling and wonderful results. Cover art for the album has been provided by filmmaker and artist David Lynch. You can hear compositions from the Blood of Union album here: http://soundcloud.com/paulamlehn

Trauma as Prima Materia
The point of origin of my work is autobiographical. From this core of personal experience, the embryo of the work is cross-fertilized with other philosophical and conceptual notions, such as those of Antonin Artaud and Georges Bataille. Although the work proceeds from this intimate and intense experience of self, it is eminently universal, tapping into the underground tributaries of the collective unconscious that unite mankind as a whole. Several catalytic and cataclysmic events have brought forth significant works in my oeuvre. Namely, the birth and death of my first son, the murder and rape of my step-sister, childhood abuse, and the entropic trajectories and eventual dissolution of important relationships in my life. Embodied within these events are the seeds of beauty, a beauty closely aligned with suffering, a beauty at once terrifying and revelatory. Here is the notion of trauma as prima materia. This base matter, this chaos, this swirling darkness, this "blackness blacker than black," is also the fecund earth from which the first shoots of paradise grow. Anguish, despair, loss, pathos, are Saturnine ore ready to be transmuted in the crucible of an art process that is a journey towards transcendence and a rebirth of the senses, but a bloody one, borne not of grace, but of passion, as the Via Dolorosa and the Stations of the Cross. My work references, illumines, and draws upon a panoply of source material and thematic components: alchemy, biology, cosmology, physics, mysticism, et alia. Chief among these components, is biographical matter (matter, from the Latin mater, mother). This matter may be directly addressed in the work, with eviscerating and desolating force, or, may be subsumed, until only the faintest trace of a psychological imprint remains. There is also the relevant intersection between my visual art work and current theories of physics, in particular: quantum theory, string theory, and M-theory. These cutting-edge scientific notions resonate with certain ancient religious belief systems and their view of multiple universes occupying the same space-time continuum. In this context, the current chemically-altered Photo-Painting work may be considered portals into the multiverse, brief glimpses into a previously unseen realm of being and existence. Photographic film is highly sensitive to electromagnetic waves, and when exposed to chemicals, heat, electricity, magnetism, and radiation; startling images are revealed. These images, conjured forth from the ether, are both phantasmal and familiar, each a secret door to a possible beyond. Catharsis, in the Aristotelian psychological and emotional sense of the word, is an important aspect of my work. And, of equal import, is the notion that this lexicon of images: images of fecundity and putrefaction, of trial and rebirth, suffering and joy, and ultimately, of being; bring forth a catharsis in the viewer as well as in the work's creator. This is the catharsis invoked by the tragedian in his "goat-song." The dual role of the artist as a sacrificial offering and as a mouth-piece of the gods. There is also a resonance with the mystical and psychological notions of Carl Jung. From Gnosticism, to archetypes, dream, mythology, and alchemy, there is a transposition and interpolation of conceptual membranes between Jung's work and my own. One significant point of commonality is the manner in which the disciplines of science, mysticism, and religion (and all their related sub-types) are fused into a cohesive meta-theory, one which addresses the complex and multivalent facets of our existence. In this sense, my work may be considered an exploration of actualities, an investigation into the very nature of what we conceive of as reality itself. A surging of space-time foam. Cellular cruelty. The theatre of the dream image made manifest. The artist is a conduit for the myriad forces that are constantly struggling within us asking to be released.

Traum und Trauma Photo-Paintings
From 2007-2008, in Vienna, Austria, and Auckland, New Zealand, I undertook a series of photo-paintings, titled: Traum und Trauma (Dream and Trauma). These works were created by exposing photographic film to heat, chemicals, pressure, electricity, magnetism, and radiation. A number of the Traum und Trauma works were published in Static, the journal of the Science Museum, the ICA, and the TATE. One of the works was also exhibited in a group show at Artist's Space, in New York. You can see more of the Traum und Trauma photo-paintings here: http://www.saatchionline.com/PaulAmlehn

If you can't be bothered to have any form of hair extensions consultation before taking the plunge, don't complain later that you look like an 80's llama.
Your extensions aren't all slipping
The growing gap you feel between your head and your weave isn't your hair extensions slipping off all at once, it's just the miracle of natural hair growth in full effect.
When your weave gets fried
Can you inadvertently do something to damage your hair extensions beyond the point of repair? Even if you're truly sorry and promise to use deep conditioner, once your weave gets fried, it's over.
Hair extensions placement for ponytails
Sometimes you have to make tough decisions in life, like whether you prefer your hair extensions thick, or your ponytail non-hideous.
Dry shampoo
If you love clean hair but you love sleeping in more, then dry shampoo is the answer. Increase the days between washings and save your hair some damage.
Maybe if I ignore this knotball it'll go away
What starts out as a few knots in your semi-permanent extensions can turn into dreads real quick! Avoid matted hair extensions with simple finger combing.
Tying your hair up to sleep
If you wear semi-permanent extensions and you aren't tying your hair up to sleep, then you're probably waking up looking like a hot mess instead of just hot.
What are Brazilian knot extensions?
Brazilian knots are pretty cool if you're not into glue and clamps and clips, although without those things shedding is a major possibility when brushing.
How to: Guide to coloring your red hair extensions
Have you been searching for the perfect red hair extensions to match your fiery personality only to be disappointed? Don't bother, just color them yourself!
When you heat style your extensions, it affects all your hair
If you think your hair isn't being subjected to any heat styling damage just because you have extensions, then think again! Still worth it, though.
How to: make your own clip-ins
DIY: make clip extensions all by yourself and save money! This tutorial requires sewing and a trip to the beauty supply store, but it's worth it.
How often should I wash my hair with extensions?
In a perfect world, my hair would never get dirty and I could wash it once a year. But since I'm a greasy beast, I wash my hair every 3 to 5 days.
I just took out my extensions and I look like crap
Can wearing extensions ruin your hair? Maybe, but more likely is that you forgot that you looked this way before. You've always had busted hair, unfortch.
Hair accessories you need now
If you're going to spend money on extensions, then why not spend even MORE money getting some sweet hair accessories to make your life easier?
What are clip-in extensions?
Change your hair instantly with clip-in extensions. They're fast, easy, and versatile. And then later you can take them off in front of your boyfriend.
What are microloop extensions?
Microloop extensions so easy to put on yourself. How long they last = how well they were installed. They're pretty safe for your hair though, which is a huge plus.
What are fusion extensions?
When it comes to semi-permanent fake hair, fusion extensions are amongst the most popular, longest-lasting, and most difficult to remove without tears.
What are taped extensions?
How are taped extensions attached and will they kill my hair? Probably! But they look thick and are fast to put in. How are they removed? Who knows!

Baseball:Yankees down Mets 7-3
TAMPA — The Tampa Yankees posted three runs in the home second inning on four hits and two walks to beat the St. Lucie Mets 7-3 at George M. Steinbrenner Field.
The second-inning surge put the Yankees (11-14) up 4-0.
The Mets (16-9) scored in the top of the fourth, but the Yankees answered with two in the bottom of the inning.
St. Lucie collected seven hits including a double by left fielder Travis Taijeron, who was 2-for-4 on the day, and an RBI single by Cam Maron.
The game was a continuation of Tuesday night's game, which was postponed by bad weather in the first inning. St. Lucie's Tuesday starter, Domingo Tapia (2-3) was tagged with the loss after giving up a run on no hits.
The Yankees had eight hits, including a two-run, home run by Mason Williams.
Wednesday's second game of the scheduled doubleheader was canceled due to heavy rain and inclement weather in the area. Since the two teams do not meet again during the first half of the season, these games will not be made up.
The Mets start a three-game road series against the Fort Myers Miracle Thursday and return to Tradition Field for nine home games in 10 days. First up — a four-game series against the Daytona Cubs starting Sunday at 4 p.m.

You can become GNMA "certified" by taking courses in one of three areas of concentration: Citizen Engagement, Leadership Development, and Neighborhood Management. The guided tracks allow citizens to focus their training on the critical facets of neighborhood health. City Government 101 is a pre-requisite for any of the three certification tracks. Participants must complete five courses beyond City Government 101 to become certified. Participants will receive certificates of completion for each certification track completed.
Interested individuals are invited to take any number of courses that are of interest, even if they are not within a single track.
